on our Emmaus Journey #poetry #God #Christ #Spirit #love #grace #faith #trust #believe #Easter #Emmaus #Luke24

We walk the same path
on our own Emmaus journey
We come to know Christ
walking beside us
opening the word,
this life, His mission
to save the world...
 
We read the scriptures,
prophesies about Jesus,
We hear His story,
God’s love for the world...
We walk the same journey
to find, to share Christ
to save the world...
 
We walk with Christ to Emmaus
We come to find Him within us
We rejoice as our stories are woven,
into the great story of faith...
We rise as they did, on fire,
to share our joy with others,
to save the world...

The Cross is the Proof

The cross is proof
there will be tomorrow,
that this time, these days,
will not be our last,
by the living Christ,
by the veil being torn…
 
The cross is the proof
of the resurrection, of life,
the ancient symbol of power,
transformed by Jesus,
by His rising from the grave,
by the empty tomb…
 
The cross is the proof
of Christ’s identity, His power,
that the resurrection happened,
that we have new life,
by Christ’s ascension,
by His promise to return…

He lived every prophecy

Christ fulfilled every promise
in the steps of His life
He lived every prophecy
to live and die for me…
 
Christ was the perfect sacrifice,
who took on all my sin,
He climbed the cross for me,
to set my spirit free…

separated from God

the wrath excruciating
far more than the lash, the thorns,
feeling singular emptiness
supporting the wrath of God…
 
estranged from the Father,
the Son writhing in anguish,
the seed of eternity, the firstborn,
dying in pain on our cross…
 
torture beyond our imagination,
feeling forsaken by God
Christ in His torment
suffering the wrath of God…

Submitting to God’s Wrath

Christ’s mission, His purpose,
His eternal calling, a servant,
our propitiation, our sacrifice,
the weight of all our sin,
place upon the unblemished lamb…
 
Christ is our payment,
our atoning sacrifice,
submitting to God’s wrath,
talking all our iniquity,
our blood on His head…
 
Christ’s choice to descend,
to climb our cross,
fulfilling His purpose,
His calling, His mission,
to die and rise for us…

You are the Christ

Words of power, of authority,
clarity in the moment,
but needing to submit, to trust,
in the calling of Christ Jesus…
 
Oh, how Peter was right,
when he answered the question of Jesus,
He was the Messiah, God’s Son,
the One foretold in scripture…
 
But Peter had it wrong,
not seeing Christ’s purpose,
how He had to suffer and die,
to fulfill prophesy…
 
Jesus is the Christ,
the One who descended,
the One to take our iniquity
to the cross, to the grave…
 
Christ rose in power,
not of earth but of heaven,
to redeem us to God,
to raise us all up to Glory…

was it the light John spoke of

was it the light John spoke of
in his holy scripture,
that was seen by the baptizer,
while he was in the womb,
the light in Mary’s vessel,
the light that entered the world,
the light that was growing
in her sacred womb…
 
was it Christ’s light, consciousness,
John saw, that made him leap,
at the sound of Mary’s voice,
our Savior beside him, growing,
waiting within her vessel,
growing in secret, in silence,
His clay being molded
In her sacred womb…

Christ heard Mary’s heart beating – v2

From the moment the Holy Spirit fell upon her,
piercing the veil, a tear in the fabric of time,
the eternal Son became human flesh,
descending in that instant from heaven,
He felt his body forming, growing,
within the womb of Mary…
 
Christ heard Mary’s heart beating,
the waters of her blood flowing,
feeding Him, growing, alive,
alive in the darkness,
within the secret place,
the eternal mortal, flesh…
 
Emmanuel, Messiah, come to earth,
the One who was prophesied, to come,
in the well, the pool of her womb, growing,
Christ, God here with us, transcendent,
conscious of His divinity always,
yet an embryo, a baby, human flesh…
 
Christ heard Mary’s heart beating,
stronger as He grew in secret,
like us within our mothers,
fed by her love, her blood,
in the well of her womb,
ready to enter the world…
 
The King of Kings, our Lord of Lords,
our now risen Lord and Savior,
His body quickening, taking His first breath,
held in the hands of Joseph, of Mary,
His first cries of life of love for us,
eternal, laid in His manger bed…

Their hearts beating together - v2

Mary and Jesus,
for the months after the Spirit,
after the immaculate conception,
before our Savior’s birth…
 
Their hearts beating together,
Mary and her son Jesus,
Christ growing within her,
our Savior, Emmanuel…
 
Mary and Jesus,
their songs, their love story,
making the eternal mortal,
growing in His mother’s womb…
 
Their hearts beating together,
as they would forever, truly,
with Him at conception,
beyond that day on the cross…
 
Mary and Jesus,
Child and her Father,
His first disciple Mary,
exalted on high…
 
Their hearts beating together,
In each breath, each moment,
Mother and Child forever,
Their hearts beating as one…

Christ heard Mary’s heart beating

From the moment the Holy Spirit fell upon her,
piercing the veil, a tear in the fabric of time,
descending in that instant from heaven,
He felt his body forming, growing,
within the womb of Mary…
 
Christ heard Mary’s heart beating,
the waters of her blood flowing,
feeding Him, growing, living,
within the secret place,
the eternal mortal, flesh…
 
Emmanuel, Messiah, come to earth,
in the well of her womb, growing,
Christ, God here with us, transcendent,
conscious of His divinity always,
yet an embryo, a baby, human flesh…
 
Christ heard Mary’s heart beating,
stronger as He grew in secret,
fed by her love, her blood,
in the well of her womb,
becoming ready to enter the world…
 
The King of Kings, our Lord of Lords,
His body quickening, taking His first breath,
held in the hands of Joseph, of Mary,
His first cries of life of love for us,
the eternal, laid in His manger bed…

Nine months within Mary

Nine months within Mary,
growing as we do, alive,
but fully conscious of His divinity,
of the uniqueness of His creation,
before the quickening of His flesh…
 
God growing within Mary,
His mother, yet His daughter,
for He was in Creation, the beginning,
“Before Abraham was, I Am”,
God within the womb of Mary…

Conscious of His divinity

Christ was God, divine,
at Creation, in the womb of Mary,
conscious of His divinity,
before the quickening of His flesh,
God alive in Creation, entering time,
what must Christ have felt, awareness,
growing in Mary’s womb…
 
Christ was fully alive in her body,
the eternal made mortal, growing as we do,
but aware of His divinity, fully God,
indwelling within her vessel, the seed of eternity,
the hope of all mankind, of life, itself,
before the manger, before John leapt,
Christ was conscious of His divinity before all else…

Constrained by His flesh – v2

God held within mortal clay,
by the flesh of His body,
constrained as a child, this babe,
yet He is fully God…
 
the sentience of Christ,
from Creation, immortal,
yet God dwelling here with us,
a tear in the fabric of time,
the eternal become mortal…
 
life rose with Him, the Trinity,
there at Creation, descending,
the Babe laid in the manger,
the Man who climbed our cross…

A consciousness of who He was – v2

words of power, of authority, present,
the Babe who was placed in the manger,
the Man who was baptized by John
a consciousness of who He was
before He began ministry,
when He spoke in the Temple,
a most precocious little boy…
 
when did Christ know His divinity,
how did He enter creation, awake,
was He aware in Mary’s womb,
when His cousin leapt beside Him,
what must Mary have thought,
how they would raise the Son of God,
the Messiah long-awaited come to earth,
fully-human and fully-God here with us…
 
a consciousness of who He was
a tear in the fabric of time, the curtain,
there at the beginning, in creation,
now seated on His throne in heaven,
the Babe who was placed in the manger,
the Man who would climb our cross,
who suffered to give us life…

The sentience of Christ – v2

a tear in the fabric of time
the incarnation, the birth of Christ,
the Babe laid in the manger,
such a mystery, such a gift,
wrapped in swaddling clothing,
the sentience of Christ,
God here with us…
 
fully-child, yet fully-God,
with the Father at creation,
life sprang forth from within Him,
the Babe in the Manger,
the Man who would climb the Cross,
God who ascended to heaven,
now seated on his throne…
 
a tear in the fabric of time,
the Godhead here dwelling,
the curtain was torn wide open
the infinite entering creation,
God in mortal flesh was born,
laid in His manger bed…
 
the bread of life was born,
Christ, long-promised,
placed in a manger,
the eternal God of heaven,
the Son, our Messiah,
our risen Lord and Savior…
 
a tear in the fabric of time,
the Messiah, the Trinity,
pierced the veil, descended,
a mystery of our faith,
life was born to Mary,
God dwelt in flesh with us…
